January 28, 2024 - Awesome, still a lot of primary characteristics, feels like it could easily go another 10 to 15. drank after a one hour decant.

January 2, 2023 - Lovely aged Syrah. Black fruits, smoked meats on the nose with hints of lavender and dried herbs. Medium weight with slightly creamy mouthfeel which opens up lovely spectrum of classic Syrah flavors, sweet plum and
cherry, with undertones of bacon fat and hints of chocolate. The whole profile is framed with a persistent savory finish. Really well done ! -

December 31, 2022 - Purchased direct from winery & cellared since. Decanted upon opening & consumed over 2 hours. Tannins are silky smooth & fully integrated. Dense, dark, sweet fruit with some spice but surprised at how primary this still is with little secondary characteristic developmen, which makes the wine somewhat one dimensional. Still very well made with great fruit.

March 13, 2020 - Lots of blue fruit and roasted meat, this time noticed an herbal component on finish along with the mineral notes I have tasted previously. Solid.
